Similar to the Citroen Karin and related to Africar, I think

Wedgy design
I think the detractors of the Tesla design should wait until they see the full unveiling, or a more detailed set of images. The tailgate includes ramps inside, so you can drive right up into the bed area. In addition they adopted the adjustable suspension of Citroen which allows about 6 inches of height adjustment (either by driver or computer control) for better aerodynamics and off-roading capability both.
Perhaps Elon saw an Africar -- I rode in this one almost 40 years ago and it messed me up for life. Flat panels because it was resin-infused plywood. Flat 4 or 6 cyinder air cool engine, wide track, high clearance. I didn't just want to buy one, I invested in the company... so I got a "come to the auction" notice when they went bankrupt. Sigh.
I admit I put down a deposit on the CyberTruck. But no Tesla stock for me.
